It’s important to UNPLUG. It’s healthy to step away from the screen. It will more than likely increase your productivity and creativity when you give yourself the adequate time to disconnect from the never ending scroll and ‘more to be done’ list. - Spend time with friends. Be present in the outdoor world. Do something you love. Read the book that’s been on your nightstand. Instagram will be there in a few hours—and if it’s not, well we can take things from there 😂 - But in all honesty, I love to constantly be in control of what I’m posting and definitely enjoy keeping up with the constant changes and trends happening in social media every single day. Unfortunately, this didn’t exactly give me much time to actually live my life 😅 my social media existence and experience is T E N times better now that I know how to schedule content ahead of time. Two of my favorite resources for this? @planoly is INCREDIBLE. So user friendly and hosts lots of helpful webinars. AND of course, the always lovely @kaitlinfontenot who is a content scheduling queen 👑 - Questions about content scheduling? Want to know how to be able to actually be away from your phone for some time over the weekend?!

Custom illustrations? Check. One of my favorite additions to any branding project! ✨ There’s just something so special about the uniqueness of it all, knowing it was crafted with only your brand, business and objective in mind 🍊#citrusinspired #blankpaigedesign
Sunday inspires—which speaks to you the most? Travel, art, illustration, personal style, interiors, greenery, explorations...it’s all right here #blankpaigedesign
Reminder to all you weekend warriors, side hustlers, creative entrepreneurs and more—don’t confuse forward movement with constant hustle and burnout. Work hard, rest when you need to and when it feels right, get away from the screen, and know that your work will still be right there when you come back. Better yet, you’ll be refreshed and likely inspired to do more #blankpaigethoughts
Happy to report that I do spend some time away from the screens ✌🏼 don’t forget the importance of disconnecting, basking in the sunshine and being amongst nature in full bloom 🌿🌺 #blankpaigethoughts
3 QUESTIONS❓to ask yourself when brainstorming for your brands color palette: . ⭐️ 1. How does my brand or business make me feel, and what do I want others to feel when interacting with my brand? What kind of emotions should be evoked? ⭐️ 2. What colors will highlight my brand, and what hues will contrast too heavily with or work against my brand, business or products? ⭐️ 3. How will the colors I choose for my brand identity transfer across various aspects of my brand, including the website, various social media channels and print marketing materials? While we go intro much more detail about your brand visual identity and color palette when working together, these introductory questions can get you started on thinking about which direction you’d like to have your brand’s color palette lean toward. While I myself am quite the warm-tone enthusiast, I truly love experimenting with all shades, tones and hues to craft the best possible palette for each one of my clients.

Don’t be afraid to let your work run off the page. Color and paint outside those lines. Throw all of your creativity onto the canvas. You might be surprised at what you may find (or unknowingly create).
Positively pink in the best of ways ✨💗 x This whimsical little home lives on Martha’s Vineyard. I want all of its magic.
If I could wallpaper my entire home with this I likely would...somebody stop me. Working on a #moodboard for an upcoming project!

Brand Marks for Kora Lucy Photography 📸 Once I have an idea of what typography I’d like to pair with a particular brand, I just let all of my ideas and creative stream of consciousness out onto the art boards. Also, this muted mint? Obsessed. #blankpaigedesign
Black and White, Plain and Simple. x While the logo itself is anything but, the current presentation is precisely that. I absolutely love working on branding projects that are vivid, whimsical and often bold in color and messaging. But before that fun and creativity can begin, it all starts here—black and white, messy art boards, with one idea. x #logodesign #logodesigner #brandstylist #brandingbabe #girlbosslife #calledtobecreative #socialmediatipsandtricks #designtips #authenticbranding #femaleentrepreneurs #creativebusiness #womenwithambition #typographyfound #brandstylist #designsponge #capturemycraft #freelancedesigner #thecreativegrid #whitespacespring #whitespacesummer #smallbizsquad #shopsmalllove #photographybranding #mycreativecommunity #creativesofinstagram #brandstorytelling #brandingproject #creativestudio #bohoweddingphotographer #blankpaigedesign
